German shares gave up early gains to trade on a flat note on Wednesday as investors awaited the release of minutes of the September Federal Reserve policy meeting later today for clues on the rate outlook.

The euro hit a two-week high against the dollar after Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont refrained from making a formal declaration of the region's independence on Tuesday.

The benchmark DAX was marginally higher at 12,954 in late opening deals after declining 0.2 percent on Tuesday.
